FBI File on Malcolm X - Microforms

Scope: This file documents
the life of Malcolm X, beginning with his involvement with the Nation of Islam
until his assassination on February 21, 1965.

How to search the collection:
The collection is contained on 10 rolls of microfilm and is accompanied by a
print guide that provides some description of the contents ("Roll Notes").
The documents were filmed in the order they were received from the FBI and are
in approximate chronological order (though the FBI did not index documents).
While these files have been released under the Freedom of Information Act,
"certain documents or portions of documents have been deleted by the FBI
pursuant to provisions of that legislation". Also, the Roll Notes, while
not a complete inventory of the files, "is an indication of the types of
material or specific documents that may be particularly worthwhile for research"
